Valentine Waterfall Card

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and I wanted to get a head start on Valentine cards.  This is a card I made for my husband, and for this card, I made a waterfall card.  I viewed a couple of YouTube videos on how to make waterfall cards, because I've never made one before. :p

The black card base is from The Paper Company (cut at 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches).
The red polka dot mat is from The Paper Studio (cut at 5 1/4 x 4 inches).
The white paper is from Georgia Pacific (cut at 1 3/4 x 1 3/4 inches).
The black cardstock to mat the white squares is from The Paper Company (cut at 2 x 2 inches).
The black strip is from The Paper Company (cut at 1 x 4 1/4 inches).
The red strip to hold the waterfall is from The Paper Company (cut at 2 x 9 inches).
The black circle is cut with an EK Success 1 3/8 circle punch.
The brads are from Hobby Lobby.

This heart stamp is from Inkadinkado's Hearts stamp set.
Ink is Memento Lady Bug.

Here is how the card looks when the tab is pulled.

The sentiment is from My Pink Stamper.

The pull tab is made with black eyelet (Making Memories), set with the Big Bite.
Ribbon is from Michael's.

I hope my husband likes this card!

P. S.  It was my first time to use the Big Bite, and I had a little trouble following the directions.  Watching this video helped.
